@arsenalfan, thank you for your advise, this is the first year for Aizawl FC after reviving our team. Till now we don't have many professional players in Mizoram though they may play in professional team but they are not professionals in mental. We have only one AFC 'B' License holder coach (Joseph who is looking after Aizawl FC). There are so many skill players in Mizoram but not professionals in mentally now.
Teams from others State always think that they can pull out any Mizo players without any proper contracts till date. They have to think different way now.
Mizoram is becoming a State of football festival now.. Red Ribbon Inter Village (a tournament consisting of 222 teams are participating) is going on now. MFA cup (A tournament consisting of all districts and blocks are participating) will be held from May. Then another MFA 3rd Division Zone Championship League, 2nd Division League and First Division league are on the way for this year. Aizawl FC is also one of Mizoram 3rd Division teams.
For a "B" licensed coach he has brought you guys up higher than expected.
As for players, that is the problem when a new team from a region with no other I-League or I-League 2 team comes up to the I-League 2. There players will be exposed to a new range of professionalism (well actually it is 2nd Division but you know what I mean) and get better with each passing game. You guys went from losing 5-0 to ONGC to losing 4-3 to Mohammedan! There is improvement from the first game.
As for the tournaments, hopefully there are some good talents there and also check out players in the Nagaland Premier League. There are some nice players in the NPL which are already making names for themselves.
Yes, i have seen some naga boys played in Kohima. I have watched Sikkim United Vs Life Sports FC exhibition match. I saw some good players in Nagaland. We, Aizawl FC, played Royal Gold Cup in 2010(Champion) and 2011(Runner's Up), we thrashed Life Sports FC in SEMIS final of 2011 by 5 goals margin. I saw one good midfielder and one good defender there.. and i also have seen New Market XI played etc.. They have talents but not proper management and leagues.
In next 5 yrs, Meghalaya, Mizoram and Nagaland teams are going to be major challengers.... good going, just dont lose heart from initial dissapointments
It is. Every club begins with a knock-down. Even here (and yes I will use another MLS example) with every new expansion club that comes in, they do horrible there first year. Once the team gets settled and the professionalism gets great the team will get better.

This is what happens when other teams whine about losing. Just take it and move on (of course if you have a justifiable case then by all means appeal but for example with Ar-Hima and USFC, Ar-Hima had no evidence)
Anyway I doubt Aizawl is cheating and hopefully you guys will win next round.
